Abstract

(264 °C) and flexural modulus (4.91 GPa) values. Subsequently, the formulated photoprintable resins are employed for use in high-resolution projection micro-stereolithography (PμSL) printing. Complex PBZ 3D structures can be achieved from the as-printed objects after they are thermally treated. These findings advance the design of BZ monomers for photopolymerization-based 3D printing and offer a method for the efficient fabrication of high-performance thermosets for various demanding engineering applications.
